    I'm glad that Dudley is doing well. He's such a handsome merle cardi!
  • Corgi Mom

    Sorry about the letter color. Thanks for letting me know I'll change it right away. Thanks. :-)
  • Corgi Mom

    Is the lettering easier to read now? Hope so. Let me know. Thanks.
  • CaptainCorgi

    Your two are so cute, I love them both. I always wanted a Cardigan Welsh Corgi and blue merle is such a lovely color!
  • Sam Tsang

    Hey Cheri! How's Dudley doing? Any updates?
  • sara+norma

    Norma will be joining us on Tuesday! I can't wait...almost dizzy with excitement! I will post pictures as soon as I can. We are really hoping she is a good match for us.

    Dudley is absolutely beautiful! And it sounds like he's definitely on the mend too! That's great!

    I'd never really considered getting a blue merle until I met one of Norma's housemates--a stunning blue merle cardi named Sally.

    Cheri,

    passing by your site, and you're so awesome. i love that your corgis have different activities! I want to get my pem into agility also ;D but i'm afraid it's too expensive to do in nyc. ;(
  • Arlette

    Old Navy has really cute puff coats for dogs too!!
  • JW

    Your Corgis are ADORABLE! They look so cute together :) How do you like having both a Pem and a Cardi?
  • Kellee

    Thanks Cheri, Dudley and Taffy are just precious!
  • Jeremiah and Rhys "Mr. May"

    Wow, The Psycho Wyco Trail Run looks fun! Good luck with that... I am running the Austin Marathon in Feb. and then I am not sure until the JFK 50 in November. I'm also going to my first field school next summer.
    Good luck with Dudley's training and I have a good feeling about this next run of yours. Your going to do great!

    Hi,
    How interesting......I've never known anyone with both a Cardigan and a Pembroke. I've only seen Cardigans on the internet, books and magazines. Cardigans are not imported in Singapore where I live. By the way, I have a Pembroke. His name is Ritz, a red/white and he's almost 17 months old.
  • Daisy

    Hi yes I do draw pictures of my corgi all put them on my page soon. Your cardigan corgi Dudley is beautiful I love blue merle corgis I wanted one but there ALOT of money were I live. But both of your corgis are adorable! The corgi pics of when shes jumping over the herdal are awsome! Daisy needs to learn that.
  • Christine Glossman

    Hello,
    Dudley is adorable, love the champagne color around his eyes.
  • Chris

    I loved your video of Taffy! I hope I can make time to teach my maggie some agility tricks. I've got a jump bar and weave poles. Just need to make time to work with Maggie.
  • Lauren (Duke and Daisy's momma)

    Taffy is a sweetheart. Wish I could get out there with Duke and teach him some tricks. He is quite stubborn and very distracted just fetching his toy newspaper. But he loves it!
  • Heather

    Oh my gosh, what a neat coincidence that we both sing the little teapot song about our corgis! I guess it's just fitting for the little ones. :) Your pups are adorable and quite the pair. So cool that you have one of each kind!
  • Jeremiah and Rhys "Mr. May"

    How is the training going? I did a nice little 8 mile run yesterday in the rain and mud it was soooo much fun.
  • Jeremiah and Rhys "Mr. May"

    Wear orange!
  • Mike L

    Yep, Toast is a hairy one! I love those Easter photos of you and the little ones ;)
  • Corgi Mom

    I love the new photos you added. Dudley should be nicknamed Studley Dudley. :-D What a handsome little man!
  • Bryan

    Don't ya just love those rascally blue Corgis? :-) I've got one of those too!! Dudley looks so cool! :-)
  • Jeremiah and Rhys "Mr. May"

    How was the run? I meet some one at the San Dieguito Half Marathon who ran last years event... she said it was tough. I am running the ATT Austin Marathon on sunday with my mom (her first) it should be a lot of fun.
  • Jeremiah and Rhys "Mr. May"

    I looked at your pics, what fun! Well my mother and I finished her firsts marathon. I came down with the flu it was a very long, tough day. I thought I was going to pass out after I crossed the finish line. It took me 6:24 to run the marathon, but I finished.
  • Majsan

    Hi Cheri.

    Just want to say that I think that Dudley ia a hansome boy :)
  • Majsan

    Thank you for kind words about my "Wilja".
    What a small world. Cardax Verdi Jubilee was the father of may first cardi-male "Wilbur". :)
  • Cubbie

    Taffy has beautiful coloring! I think she looks like a Taffy, too. Cubbie's older brother's name was Bear, so he was named Cubb, which we changed to Cubbie! Hehe.
  • Carolyn Pippin and Gambler

    Taffy and Dudley aren't to bad looking themselves! I so enjoyed all your videos! Scooter is a water dog. She loves all water as long as I don't envolve soap!! She Jet Ski's with me. Loves the Kayak as long as she can swin once in a while! Loves the swimming pool too. I had her tested by a lady here in our valley who is the local herding trainer. Scooter did great. No quiting from her. Scooter got high scores in all the different tests. She wanted me to wait until she was a year old to start training. Then I got sick and we were not able to go back. But Scooter loved that too. Dudley is a beautiful Blue color. Taffy acts like she is way above all the nonsences of puppy play! Aren't they fun??
  • Carolyn Pippin and Gambler

    What kind of kayaking do you do? Scooter goes on Lake Tahoe and in what they call the "Back Country" in Key West FL. This is around and through the Mangroves. It's GREAT!! Smooth water and LOTS of wildlife and fish. She too has a vest but would rather not wear it.. I tell her, Oh Well. I think it is unconfortable when she is laying in the kayak. She doesn't mind it when she rides with me on the Jet-Ski.They are so funny. What would we do without them? Life would be so boring!!!
  • Shannon

    love your little boys markings
  • Shannon

    Thank you
  • Michelle

    Your doggies are adorable. Love that Cardi spirit- such mischief!
  • Amanda

    Ok, I LOVE the name Dudley for a corgi. Our is Einstien but we call him Dudley just cause it's so cute.
  • Amanda

    Do you call him Duddles as a nickname? I see you have a cardi and a pem. Which one has a better attitude? Which is more laid back? Our two pems have some serious personalities and Daisy has a lot of attitude. She's very bossy!
  • Cheri

    Female Corgi's in general are bossy. At least that's what I've been told to expect from a female Corgi. The males are usually easy going dudes. My guys fit that stereotype. Taffy rules the roost and Dudley's just goes with the flow. Not that he doesn't have his stubborn streaks, but for the most part he's very easy going.

    Sometimes we call Dudley Dudders. But normally we just call him Dudley.
  • Amanda

    That could be it. Ein used to be very agressive as a puppy. Like pretty much as soon as he was able to be food and toy agressive he was. But we trained him out of that and now he's pretty submissive to us. He will growl and run away if you touch him while he's sleeping though. But Daisy seems to have almost no respect for us and she growls like crazy when we pick her up and tries to bite. Not hard but enough to tell us to put her down. And she will bark for attention and force you to pet her by sticking her head under your hand. She's a strange one. I figured she'd grow out of it like Ein but it's not happening.
    I love Dudders too! Your dogs are super cute. I love the colors on the Cardi!
  • Amanda

    Yeah, Daisys a more natural herder than Ein is. His hips hurt him so he doesn't chase us around the yard as much as he used to but Daisy will run circles around us barking her head off and nipping the whole time. She never runs out energy. I love it! We should put her in some kind of herding or agility trial. I think she'd be good. That's smart to stop the game when he gets too rough. He'll catch on and will stop doing that hopefully!
  • Cheri

    I highly recommend both activities! Taffy does agility and loves it. We've had her instinct tested for herding and she flunked. Not once, but twice! Her goal when she gets close to sheep is to run past them as fast as she possibly can and get as far away from them as possible! She's just not a herder. But Mr. Dudley, OMG! We had him tested at 7 months and he passed with flying colors. I don't know that he's ever going to be great at it, but he loves it. He's training for agility right now and we've just started Rally-O training. The other activity Dudley loves is tracking. We haven't been training for a while but now that it's warmer we'll have to start up again. I was doing my own training so much this winter (I'm a runner) that I kind of let his tracking training fall by the wayside. But now I take Dudley with me on some of my runs. I run trails and am teaching Dudley how to run them with me. People would think there's no training involved but he has to learn not to stop in front of me and not to weave side to side. He has to run ahead of me (we usually have to run single file) and in a straight line when the trail isn't that narrow. He's doing great!

    that day she got her first qual score for rally and has now titled..

    this wkend, sat n sun, she is in an agility trial...oooooo this should be fun..i hope by end of sat, she is right on target...and if she needed her free run, she did it already...first time i did agility in the ring for a score, she did not let me lead out, took off, in circles, then exit the ring and went poo!

    i hope to get more video for her in the ring..you never know what to expect.

  • Natalie, Lance &Tucker

    love the picture of the dog with the tennis ball in the mouth and the paws up in the air....how cute......the clothes are adorable.....where do yo find such adorable clothes for the corgi?
  • Kristen

    Cheri, I was on the midwest group and saw that you will be adding a new Cardi. How different are the personalities? I think in the future I would like to add a Cardi to our family. Right now we have three Pems.
  • Kristen

    My Pems always drop their ears and wiggle their little butts up to anyone that so much as looks their way. They just assume everyone will love them! I love the different color combinations that Cardis have. It would be a couple of years before I'm ready for another dog. So I'll try to find a breeder or two to visit with. Seems like the two fit well together. Thanks for your comments.
